Background And Objective: To develop an end-to-end artificial intelligence solution-video-based Multi-Point Tracking Network (MPTN), for detecting and tracking atrioventricular junction (AVJ) points from cardiovascular magnetic resonance and deriving AVJ motion parameters.
Methods: The MPTN model consists of two modules: AVJ point detection and AVJ motion tracking. The detection module utilizes convolutional-based feature extraction and elastic regression to detect all candidate AVJ points.

Secondary mitral regurgitation (SMR) remains a prevalent and challenging complication in patients with heart failure (HF), associated with poor prognosis despite optimal guideline-directed medical therapy (GDMT) and cardiac resynchronization therapy. Current American and European guidelines recommend GDMT as first-line therapy, with transcatheter edge-to-edge repair (TEER) reserved for severe symptomatic SMR patients who remain refractory. However, both guidelines preceded the reporting of pivotal randomized controlled trials (RESHAPE-HF2, MATTERHORN, and EFFORT) and emerging evidence in new clinical scenarios.

Introduction And Objectives: This report presents the 2024 activity data from the Interventional Cardiology Association of the Spanish Society of Cardiology (ACI-SEC).
Methods: All interventional cardiology laboratories in Spain were invited to complete an online survey. Data analysis was conducted by an external company and then reviewed and presented by the ACI-SEC board.

Background: We present a multimodality imaging study of a rare case of postsurgical chronically evolved pseudoaneurysm with a possible rupture buffered by the huge thrombus.
Case Summary: A patient known for previous late presentation myocardial infarction complicated by shock and ventricular septal defect and treated with surgical repair and triple coronary artery bypass grafting, was directed to our hospital for severe mitral regurgitation. Computed tomography, cardiac magnetic resonance, and echocardiography, in a multimodality approach, revealed a huge postsurgical cardiac pseudoaneurysm, with an extensive thrombus and the native pericardium not perfectly distinguishable from pseudoaneurysm tissue or surgical patch.
